Selling on marketplaces is an efficient method to increase sales. Managing and completing orders on your platform and other marketplaces like Etsy at the same time, on the other hand, wastes businesses a lot of time and effort.

Google Shopping is an efficient sales channel that assists businesses in reaching out to more consumers. However, owing to the complicated Merchant Center rules, not many of them connect to this channel.

Furthermore, with various stores, the restricted feed settings cannot accommodate a wide range of situations. Merchants must manually sync data while updating, however, they are not notified when mistakes occur.

Therefore, ShopBase’s Sales Channel will add a Sales channel menu on Dashboard to unify all sales channels in one place. You now have enough data from multiple channels within your dashboard. Hence, building a successful marketing strategy is no longer impossible.

10. Boost Upsell

Online shop owners frequently use upselling and cross-selling methods to persuade their customers to add more and more items to a transaction. Furthermore, upselling and cross-selling to current clients is less expensive than gaining new ones. As a result, introducing upselling/cross-selling offers to the shop becomes a simple and effective technique for every merchant.

Boost Upsell is a ShopBase software that only allows ShopBase merchants to suggest more items to encourage consumers to spend more money on the shop. These forms are extremely popular in e-commerce since they may help you boost your profits. Furthermore, encouraging current consumers to spend more money is less expensive than acquiring whole new ones. The software may also offer customized suggestions based on a customer’s past purchases.

Shopify provides thousands of mini upsell apps to support some specific features or upsell strategies. Therefore, these apps seem not consistent and badly fit your store. Moreover, it might cost you a lot. 

On the other hand, ShopBase offers adequate upsell tools to sellers. These tools are divided into 3 formats of Pre-purchase, In-cart, and Post-purchase. These features are developed to fit with your ShopBase store, help you to increase your sales, and adapt the best with your strategies. However, it does not cost you a penny. 

The primary features of the Boost Upsell app are upsell and cross-sell.

• Upselling is the introduction of goods that are linked to the product that the consumer has put in their shopping cart or purchased in the store. After buying a product, the aim is to persuade consumers to spend additional money on a shopping cart or at the store. ShopBase provides three types of upsells: pre-purchase, in-cart, and post-purchase.

• Cross-selling is a sales strategy used to get consumers to spend more money by recommending similar goods to those they are about to purchase. Cross-sell options at ShopBase include quantity discounts, bundles, accessories, and product widgets.

You can take a look at this strategy to shoot up 4.5 times your revenue.

 

11. Boost Convert

To have more sales you also need to leverage the traffic from marketing. Convert as many as you can with multiple tools and methods. However, to do it right you may get lost if there are too many options. 

Boost Convert is a dropshipping software integrated into ShopBase that helps to create urgency and credibility to your shop by displaying Social proof alerts and Countdown tools.

Creating a sense of urgency and scarcity for sales has been shown to be an effective way to improve your conversion rate since it motivates visitors to complete their purchases as quickly as possible.

Another efficient method to increase conversion rates is to provide social proof, such as recent sales in your shop, to establish a busy store, and develop trust with your visitors.

12. SMS/Email Abandoned Cart Recovery

To increase your sales you should pay attention to save the lost sales. You may increase your store’s sales and profit by following up with customers and pushing them to finish their transactions by retrieving abandoned carts. Getting a client into your sales funnel is less expensive than finding a new consumer to advertise to.

ShopBase offers a feature that allows sellers to automatically send SMSs and emails, reminding customers to pay for an order they have not yet completed.

• Automatically send emails or SMSs to an abandoned cart customer. You will save more time by using or just reviewing our email and SMS templates, containing great tips and pre-made content to help you sway your customers into completing their orders.
• Manage abandoned checkout recovery efficiently. The ‘Abandoned checkouts emails report’ helps you to better understand just how effective those emails are at bringing your customers back to finalize their transactions. This report tells you how many sessions and completed orders have resulted thanks to the reminder emails. 

 

13. Social Proof

As mentioned before, social proof is fundamental to increase trust. Therefore, you can boost the conversion rates by triggering consumers’ willingness to buy. 

Social Proof is a feature of the Boost Convert app that shows other customers’ purchase notifications so that potential consumers view your site as trustworthy and trustworthy, motivating them to make purchases on the page. The placement of the Social Proof notification pop-up may be changed.

ShopBase provides three different kinds of alerts: sales notifications, custom notifications, and checkout notifications.

• Custom Notification: The notice of orders that you create. The system will pick up random locations in the countries you select to display on the notice, or you can manually select them yourself.
